 Power beamforming enables the eNodeB to adjust phases and amplitudes based on beam
weights in massive MIMO scenarios. With this function, the eNodeB calculates the weight
for each RF channel of the AAU. It then allocates transmit power to each RF channel
based on the amplitude corresponding to the weight, improving the channel power
efficiency.

 SectorSplitGroup MO: The following parameters must be set to the same values for cells
in a given sector split group:
 Cell.DlBandWidth and Cell.UlBandWidth
 Cell.DlEarfcn, Cell.UlEarfcn, and Cell.UlEarfcnCfgInd
 Cell.TxRxMode
 Cell.CrsPortNum
 Cell.CPRICompression
 Cell.CustomizedBandWidthCfgInd, Cell.CustomizedULBandWidth, and
Cell.CustomizedDLBandWidth
 SectorSplitCell MO
 A specific beam template ID is designed for each sector split cell and each cell
corresponds to one beam.
 The CellBeamIndex parameter specifies the beam index of each sector split cell.
 The CellBeamTilt parameter specifies the beam tilt of a sector split cell.
 The bCellBeamAzimuthOffsetb parameter specifies the horizontal beam azimuth
offset of a sector split cell.
 Each sector split cell is associated with a Cell MO, which is used to configure cell-
related parameters, such as CrsPortNum and TxRxMode.

 When the BeamTemplateId and BeamDeploymentMode parameters are set to different


values, the numbers of inner and outer beams supported by a sector split group vary with
RF modules.
 In the beam illustrations, yellow indicates the outer circle, and blue indicates the inner
circle. The AAU5711a does not support the inner circle.

 If the serving cell meets the following conditions, the eNodeB initiates intra-frequency
handover measurements for UEs involved in new accesses, incoming handovers, or RRC
connection reestablishment of the serving cell.
 The downlink PRB usage exceeds the value of the CellVMS.VmsPrbLoadTh
parameter.
 The downlink PRB usage difference between the serving cell and an intra-AAU
neighboring cell exceeds the value of the CellVMS.VmsPrbDiffTh parameter.
 If both of the following conditions are met, the eNodeB performs an intra-frequency
handover for the UEs in the serving cell. The maximum number of UEs that can be handed
over out of the serving cell within 10 seconds is specified by the
CellVMS.VmsHoUeNumTh parameter.
 Intra-frequency handover event A3 is triggered. The offset for triggering intra-
frequency handover event A3 is equal to the value of the
IntraFreqHoGroup.IntraFreqHoA3Offset parameter subtracted by the value of
the CellVMS.VmsA3Offset parameter.
 The PRB usage is greater than 2%.

 CRS: cell-specific reference signal


 RRC: radio resource control
 Intra-AAU inter-cell load balancing
 If the load difference between intra-frequency cells is large, intra-AAU inter-cell
load balancing improves the perceived rate of heavy-load cells and the capacity of
light-load cells. This function also increases the number of handovers and slightly
decreases the handover success rate.
 After this function is enabled, the measured value of the
L.HHO.IntraFreq.Load.ExecAttOut counter may increase.
 Intra-AAU inter-cell load balancing is implemented based on downlink traffic. If this
function is enabled and there is traffic imbalance between the uplink and downlink,
the uplink UE-perceived rate may decrease.

 TM4 Weight Scheme: The default value is DEFAULT_MODE. When the AAU5711a is
deployed:
 If the SectorSplitGroup.BeamTemplateId parameter is set to 2 or 3 and the
SectorSplitGroup.BeamDeploymentMode parameter is set to MODE_1, you can
set the SectorSplitGroup.TM4WeightScheme parameter to
COVERAGE_MODE_2 to improve coverage. In this case, the
SectorSplitCell.CellBeamTilt parameter is valid.
 If the SectorSplitGroup.BeamTemplateId parameter is set to 4 and the
SectorSplitGroup.BeamDeploymentMode parameter is set to MODE_2, you can
set the SectorSplitGroup.TM4WeightScheme parameter to
COVERAGE_MODE_1 to improve coverage. In this case, the optimal gain is
expected to be obtained, but the SectorSplitCell.CellBeamTilt parameter is
invalid. You can also set the SectorSplitGroup.TM4WeightScheme parameter to
COVERAGE_MODE_2. In this case, the SectorSplitCell.CellBeamTilt parameter
is valid.
 Cell Beam Azimuth Offset:
 When deploying the AAU5711 or AAU5711a, you are advised to set this parameter
to a value within [–10, 10].
 This parameter is invalid when the MM_INTELLIGENT_BEAM_SHAPING_SW
option of the SectorSplitGroup.SectorSplitSwitch parameter is selected.

 You can run the LST CELL command to query the value of Cell transmission and
reception mode. If the value is 32T32R, the cell is a massive MIMO cell.
 You can run the LST SECTORSPLITGROUP command to query the beam template ID
and beam deployment mode to check whether the DDB configuration is correct.

 In the weight file of SSB, the beam direction and beamwidth are fixed. When UE
distributions vary greatly, using these fixed beam parameters may fail to obtain the optimal
gain. Therefore, intelligent beam shaping is introduced.
 Intelligent beam shaping obtains UE distribution information through SRS measurement.
Therefore, SRS-related parameters need to be configured.

 If the MM_INTELLIGENT_BEAM_SHAPING_SW option is deselected, all the sub-


functions of intelligent beam shaping are disabled, and SSB uses the weight file of the
beam weight database in the eNodeB software package.
 When the MM_INTELLIGENT_BEAM_SHAPING_SW option is selected but the
PATTERN_ADJ_SWITCH option is deselected, the eNodeB generates a weight file for
SSB based on the beam direction and beamwidth set for the split sector. In this case:
 The beam direction in the sector is specified by the
SectorSplitCell.CellBeamAzimuth parameter. If this parameter is set to 255, the
direction configured in the sector beam weight database is used.
 The beamwidth in the sector is specified by the SectorSplitCell.CellBeamwidth
parameter. If this parameter is set to INVALID, the beamwidth configured in the
sector beam weight database is used.
 When the MM_INTELLIGENT_BEAM_SHAPING_SW option is selected but the
POWER_ADJ_SWITCH option is deselected, the eNodeB does not adjust the power
allocation for traffic channels.
 For pattern adjustment, the SectorSplitGroup.MmBeamAzimuthAdjStep parameter is
used to set the adjustment step of the beam azimuth and control the amplitude of a single
beam direction adjustment.
 For power adjustment:
 The shortest period for beam adjustment is 1 hour.
 The SectorSplitCell.CellBeamPowerOffset parameter specifies the CRS transmit
power offset relative to the power before the adjustment for a split sector.
